Explanation:

g(x) is f(x) shifted up by 2 units.

that is simply expressed as

g(x) = f(x) + 2

h(x) if f(x) shifted left by 1 unit.

that is trickier.

h(x) = f(x + 1)

why ?

every result that f(x) had at x+1, is now happening for h(x) at x ("earlier", shifted to the left). so, the function result for f(x+1) is the function result for h(x).

and therefore,

h(x) = f(x + 1)

FYI

a shift to the right by 1 unit would be

i(x) = f(x - 1)

for the same reasons as for the shift to the left, just in the other direction.
